Conformity Stinks, Creativity's Free

So sings Amelia Fletcher on Heavenly's first single in 29 years, the rather wonderful Portland Town.

Not only available digitally right now, but you can also order a proper 7" vinyl single, with a proper B-side, Someone Who Cares, which is really rather good. 

Better still, get yourself down to Islington Assembly Hall in that there London town on Saturday 19th July to see Heavenly live in concert and pick up a signed copy of the 7" single.

Just don't forget to purchase a ticket and the single in advance....

I’m hiding out in the trees once again

Lost in the leaves, close my eyes and pretend

I’m in a place, full of misfits like me

A place I can be just who I want to be.

Take me down to Portland Town

Hide in plain sight, no one turning an eye

I could play the game right, but I don’t want to try

There must be folks think the same way as me

Conformity stinks, creativity's free

I don’t have to be where people love me

They don’t have to care where I’ve been

I just want to be where no one stares at me

I just want to feel I fit in.

I know a place I’d know how to behave

I’d be out on the streets, I would not be afraid.

People who get me, and more, I get them

No pressure to be a man amongst men.
